Priorities

How would you rate the following priorities? I think it says a lot about someone's character...



  • love
  • God
  • work
  • money
  • family
  • status
  • comfort



Ideally, mine would be:

1. God
2. Love
3. Family
4. Work
5. Comfort
6. Money
7. Status

However, at the moment I feel that a more accurate order would be:

1. Love
2. Family
3. God
4. Work
5. Comfort
6. Money
7. Status

The Last 3 mean nothing if you don't have the first 4 (or 3 if you are atheist). But some will say you can't have the 4th one without the last 3 but I would disagree with them.
Of course that is just MHO. smile

Lots of love to you all!
LOTS OF LUV 2 U ALL !!!

1-love
2-family
3-comfort
4-tending to my spirit (sorry, can't call that God)
5-work
and lagging far behind...
6-money
7-status

and for me family does include my friends...I don't know where I'd be without my "chosen" family
also, work is important to me, but I like my work a lot and while I put a lot into it, I get a lot out of it...

money, whatevs, money always work out, sometimes I have it-sometimes I don't, but I always manage

status, I could really care less about...

God falls right in the middle for me, cuz I can't prioritize something I'm still trying to define.

They're all so intertwined - you cannot have money without work, family without love, any of these without God... IMHO

Money - a necessary evil

My daughter (who was 8 at the time) and I were having a conversation about wasting food, which in turn is like wasting money. She asked me "Mommy, why can't we just burn up all the money?" I asked her, how are we supposed to buy the food if nobody has any money. She said everybody could work together then we would need any money.

...from the mouths of babes.

wow! I forgot work. hmm... It's easy to forget about work when you're not doing something that really matters to you. I have days that it does and days that it doesn't. I definitely enjoy work, I just don't enjoy my current job. And I think if I didn't ever have to worry about money, work would mean something entirely differently to me. As it stands it's a necessary evil, just like money.

Now, that's not true.

I don't care about goblins, or fairies, or dragons, or unicorns. Or Santa Claus. And they don't exist!

ok lemme try

love
family and that includes my freinds, becuase they were family long before my blood family was.
work - really trying to get that all figured right now.
spirit
comfort
money
status ( something i really dont give a rats ass about )

I think for me, love and family will hold the number 1 and 2 spots, becuase without those, everything else is very difficult to manage.

i forgot money rolleyes damn edits smile lol

Interesting. I certain have love, despite my lack of God. Or maybe Satan is just making me think I have love, because I'm vulnerable without the lord's protection. I dunno. wink

I'm sorry, this is beggin for retaliation, I'm just yanking chains. smile
